Powerful Tips to Control Your Home With the iPhone

Life on the road is better with an iPhone. Life on public transport improves exponentially with the powerful portable device and apps numbering in the bajillions (according to the latest audits). Your business life is probably faster and more efficient than ever before (as well as being more 24-hours-a-day, if you let it).
Time to bring it home.
Whether it’s entertaining and informing users in the living room, spawning cooking and cocktail ideas in the kitchen, or helping you sleep (or stay up all night) in the bedroom, the iPhone’s mass array of apps can enhance your everyday home life in ways other devices and tools cannot. Here’s our room-by-room breakdown of amazingly helpful and worthwhile apps(Dell vostro 1510 Battery,Dell latitude d830 Battery) for the home.

Living Room

Even if your living room serves as the entertainment epicenter of your home, the iPhone is a perfect companion for watching television, as well as reading, shopping, and playing games with the whole family.

ESPN ScoreCenter

We’ve all been there: your favorite team is playing, but you don’t have the premium sports package. Or worse, another member of the family (who doesn’t share your love of sports) has commandeered the TV for the thrilling latest installment of Dancing With Small Furry Animals. No worries! Simply fire up the free ESPN ScoreCenter app to view constantly updated scores and detailed statistics, read news stories, and watch video highlights and reports. ScoreCenter is available on both iPhone and iPad, and both versions let you customize your favorite sports and teams and set alerts for when your teams are playing. Never again will you miss out on the latest sports action, whether you’re on the move or simply on the couch.

Amazon Mobile

Amazon.com has become the go-to shopping resource for nearly anything you could desire, whether it’s home goods, food, toys, computers, iPods, and even a subscription to your favorite Apple-focused magazine (ahem). But you don’t need a computer handy to browse through the behemoth website with ease, thanks to Amazon Mobile, a free universal app that condenses the shopping experience into an attractive and easy-to-use interface. Quickly search for items from the comfort of your couch and order them in a heartbeat with one-click purchasing and Amazon’s optional Prime subscription plan, which offers endless two-day shipping Hp dv9500 Battery,Hp dv2000 Battery for a yearly fee.

Zinio Magazine Newsstand & Reader

Ardent magazine readers tend to accumulate massive, dusty stacks of thumbed-through issues. As print-lovers ourselves, we know how difficult it can be to part with back issues. Luckily, the universal Zinio Magazine Newsstand & Reader app makes it easy to curtail your print addiction by offering up the same exact magazines—including popular publications like Esquire, Rolling Stone, National Geographic, and Consumer Reports—within a single digital resource. Thousands of international magazines are available at your fingertips, with single issues (current and older) and annual subscriptions available at or below print prices. And Zinio especially shines on the big screen of the iPad. (Just don’t forget to keep buying this print magazine!)

Air Video

While it’s easy to stream YouTube clips and download movies and TV shows from the iTunes app on iPhone and iPad, sometimes you just want a more mobile way to watch the myriad video clips you’ve saved on your Mac or PC. That’s where AirVideo comes in handy, as the universal app lets you stream video clips wirelessly from your computer over a Wi-Fi network, and can even convert file formats on the fly. Not only does that save you the hassle of waiting to make hp nc6400 battery,Hp hstnn-ib33 Battery files compatible with your iDevice of choice, but streaming the clips also saves precious space that you can use for music or apps.

What’s On?

Flipping through television listings and setting your DVR is easier than ever, thanks to several specialized apps for the iPhone and iPad, including official apps for those with cable or dish service through Comcast XFINITY, DirecTV, and Dish Network. Each of those free apps offers its own specialized set of features, but all three let you flip through the listings Mitac bp-8089 Battery,Sony vgp-bpl2c Battery for all your channels, search for specific shows and films, and even remotely set recordings—which is a godsend if you’re out running errands and looking forward to chilling on the couch with your favorite shows.

If you don’t have one of those services or simply want another option, What’s On TV? from Zap2it is a great free and universal option sony vgp-bps8a battery that lets you choose your provider by location and find complete listings, as well as search for shows and read entertainment news. iPad users can also grab iTV Shows HD ($1.99), an app that lets you track your favorite shows in one location with a sleek (albeit slow-loading) interface, scheduling info, and episode summaries.
